Asus staged quite the surprise for smartphone fans at CES2014 in Las Vegas, introducing as many as three new Zenfones, along with two PadFone devices. That's a lot of Asus, and the Taiwanese company sure piqued our interest. The Asus Zenfone 5...

No, this is every OEM's (except Google and Motorola) turn to change their UI. Their UI is getting kinda boring, and I'm getting kinda bored of Sony's UI on my Xperia Z. Every OEM's (except Google and Motorola) must change their UI, we need something more new and refreshing.

I don't think HTC needs a UI change, Sense 5 was a major step up from Sense 4. Usually a UI change should come every other cycle. Samsung, LG, and Sony are all overdue, though. Samsung's refresh is really the one I'm looking forward to. It's all about minimalism right now, and Touchwiz is currently the exact opposite of that; I'm excited to see how they pull off a UI change without breaking functionality.

The CPU is dual core but it is Hyper threaded which means it works just like a quad core. So, it is on par with budget quad cores.

And the inclusion of the SD Card slot makes it a serious contender against the Motorola G. The lack of Micro-SD card was a deal breaker for many in the Motorola G with me included because even out of that 16GB only about 12GB is actually usable which is way too less for a modern smartphone.

Looking forward to the reviews of this phone. A good contender to the Moto G.
